Description
The bogeyman of NATO expansion was Putin’s pretext to invade Ukraine. Can NATO act now to stop Russia’s war – or would that trigger nuclear conflict? Is a No-Fly Zone practical? Former NATO representative in Moscow and now Chatham House associate fellow John Lough tells Arthur Snell about the latest state of play with NATO and the long-term implications of the most dangerous security crisis in Europe since 1945.

“This operation is not playing out as Russia expected. They thought the blitzkrieg would work – but they have fatally misread Ukraine.”
“Two generations of Ukrainians have been born into freedom. The heroism they’ve shown in recent days is extraordinary.”
“Will we see an incident at the border as NATO attempts to deliver ammunition to Ukraine? There’s a lot of danger there.”
“We are prosecuting our own hybrid warfare now – economic war… Russia will go back to the Soviet Union on steroids.”
“The disaster in Ukraine can only lead to Putin leaving office a lot earlier. And it may bring the entire system down.”
“Russia has entered a quagmire that will lead to an embarrassing defeat. No amount of state propaganda can cover up that.”
DOOMSDAY WATCH was written and presented by Arthur Snell, and produced by Robin Leeburn with Jacob Archbold. Theme tune and original music by Paul Hartnoll. Group Editor: Andrew Harrison. DOOMSDAY WATCH is a Podmasters production.
